The post[0] that seems to be this article's source would be a better link. The Tom's article spins it as a pointless storage device and pushes the key feature of it including a built-in serial terminal text editor down under several paragraphs of snark. I'm not telling you to buy one and I don't know who needs one, but it's a bit unfair to judge it as an archival storage device when it doesn't even seem to be trying to be one. One extra pedantic point: assuming one could reasonably expect 200 years out of not only the FRAM but the rest of it as well... you don't really want your really good data to survive 199 years before a catastrophic slightly early failure so maybe leave instructions to access and/or duplicate the data before, say, half-time (100 years).
